2/18/2009 - Hero Token Drop in the Marketplace
- On February 18, 2009 during the evening (roughly 6:30 pm on FF) +Turbine Geneva went to each server and dropped hundreds of Hero Tokens in the Marketplace.
- This act was not an official apology for the recent server instability and authentication server problems:
It wasn't repayment or an apology for the recent issues, that decision is made by higher-ups in the food chain than myself. It had been awhile since I visited Dereth but sadly my time was very limited, that's the reason for the quick visit.
I hope to have something scheduled for the near future involving more than dropping some tokens and baby chickens to slaughter the unsuspecting level 5, 295 burden mules in the Marketplace grabbing a token.

3/16/09 - Not a Dungeon Filled With Monsters
3/16/09 - Leafcull
A dungeon appeared in Hebian-To near the meeting hall. It was called Not a Dungeon Filled With Monsters. It did not live up to its name.
The dungeon was full of Apostate Servants, Hea Apostate Shock Troopers, and Gotrok Aetherium Miners. In the bottom was a Very Mad Cow. After a long battle and many deaths, the mad cow and its minions were defeated, and the participants found Hero Tokens scattered on the floor.
3/17/09 - Wintersebb
The same portal appeared on WE, 9pm Euro Time (3pm CST?). The dungeon also held Tremendous Baby Monougas. The cow was not killed, but NoWorries (invisible) gave out hero tokens.
- +Turbine Noworries gives you Hero Token.
- The portal in Hebian-to will be closing in 5 minutes. Please collect your corpses.

6/17/09 - Creatures Invade Tufa
On Wednesday June 17th +Turbine Geneva spawned random creatures outside the town of Tufa (at 14.8S, 5.6E). This was not a storyline related event. The spawns started at roughly 6:00 pm Eastern and ended around 7. Throughout the event Hero Tokens were found on the ground in the area where the creatures spawned (thus making it difficult to get tokens with mules).
